Default My friend's Impreza :P

Just snapped up a few pics of his car today, what do you guys think? If I knew he was selling this car (just found out a couple days ago), I would have bought it instead of buying my integra.. argh!! Biggest regret of my life!

Anyway, enjoy! For those wondering, they were taken with a Sony DSC-P50 on a very dark and cloudy day... I took the pics at 1024x768 so if anyone wants a new wallpaper, just let me know

I guess the gold rims on impreza's is a little played out, so he decided white. I think it was a great decision. I still hate myself for buying the Integra instead of this I've always loved Imprezas.. especially this generation (pictured above) - never really did like the looks of the new imprezas that much..

Don't get me wrong, I only like Impreza's for their looks and that sexy rumbling boxer exhaust sound. If it was for performance, i'd still be driving a Honda (or maybe an Evo if the price was right)

Perfect. Man, I'd need 2: one in my living room to stare at, and another to tear the **** out of rallying...

Love how it looks with the exception of the spice rack he put on the trunk.

No that would be a real deal GC8 WRX, notice where he's from....I don't think it's an STi though...lack of cherry red(PINK) in the engine bay....

turbopanda, you think I could get the 4th picture in the 1st post @ 1024x768?

Imprezas in Thailand come in either NA or Turbo form. Just that the turbo form is only 210HP (lousy). My friend sourced out a 260HP engine (if it was a 280HP, the top of the engine would be red.) Yes its an EJ20 turbo, but he drives the thing for fun now, he's not so serious about racing it anymore. And the "spicerack" wing is actually an authentic STi version 5 rear wing. Some people like it, others dont. Personally I think it gives the car a much more agressive look.

He used to own a Civic Coupe with interior/exterior just like a Type-R, championship white colour with MF10L rims, and a B16B engine. I never managed to get pics of that thing before he sold it (Didn't have a digital camera back then either) It was a sweet ride..

picture number four in 1024x768? here it is! http://boost-up.com/friends/kurumani...eza-04-big.jpg

The STi wing is amazing...It a Subaru trademark. Makes the car look much more agressive. BTW, what's with you guys and all your toys on your rear view mirrors?

that just shows that he doesn't drive super fast or throw the car around.
In my cars, there is NOTHING hanging from the mirrors, so I point, brake, and throw the cars around and not have anything fly into my face
